A Harnack inequality for the Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto scheme (Q1745970)

In this deep paper, the authors establish a connection between Harnack inequalities and the Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto scheme. we recall that Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto scheme is a well-known procedure for finding time-discrete approximations to solutions of PDEs by using variational problems involving the optimal transportation problem. More precisely they prove a version of Harnack inequality for time-discrete approximations coming from the Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto scheme in the case of the heat equation on the flat torous.
